Torquay United v Taunton Town TUE 12th.

When it come to predictions for the tonbridge game when I expect everybody will predict a big win ,I will ask them to explain why! Will start tonbridge win 4-0, why? Because we can’t pass, defend, create, score, hope I’m wrong probably won’t be,and yes I will be there god knows why! Why do you thin...

Points deduction

Thanks, happytorq. Yes, probably the second one, trying to get a quick deal, but it adds more risk to the club, which is unneccessary in my opinion. The first one is where the suddenness comes in. As owner, Osborne knows exactly what the financial situation is and has been. To suddenly say "I'...

Weymouth F C V Torquay United Sat 2 March KO 3pm

Good to see you living up to your name. People ARE still talking about the playoffs, I knew long ago we had no chance. I am behind the team but we are not good enough. This season we need to just survive in this division, avoid administration and make a strong challenge next season. The next few we...

Weymouth F C V Torquay United Sat 2 March KO 3pm

Final score 1-1. We did manage to avoid defeat but you have to say two points dropped and our winless run extends to FOURTEEN in a piss poor league! Forget the playoffs. Mate, literally NOBODY is talking about the playoffs any more. Have you been living under a rock for the past few weeks!? Given t...

Osborne gone!

Abbey Greyhound and Speedway Stadium Swindon Read about it Then respond here and explain your position again I think we just need to ignore the pro-CO trolls at this point. If you're helpless at the side of the road, somebody stops by, holds a knife to your throat, and says "don't worry, I'll ...

Osborne gone!

The one thing I'd stress now is that this is the time for the fans to get behind the players. The shattered morale all makes so much more sense now; the players will certainly have known this was coming, and it can't be a surprise that our shocking run of form has come as we've got closer and closer...

Braintree v Torquay Sat 17th Feb 2024

That was on the 9th of February, before the Slough game. This is the same person on the 10th of February: The play offs are looking unlikely now. :-/ I get people are frustrated, but that needs to be aimed at the right place - the board. Infighting only serves a future housing development on Plainm...

Unfortunately, I think a degree of realism is called for. Torquay United have historically been a Football League club for a long time, but the support level isn't really there to sustain an EFL club without additional funding. Can't remember the last time Torquay got close to an average of 3000 fa...

A Message for Ross Marshall

Just because it's been going on since football was conceived doesn't make it right, even more so against your own team. Bonkers. Abuse/criticism will adversely affect the vast majority of players.....maybe Ross Marshall is one of the few who has enough character to rise above it, and may even impro...

Torquay United v Weymouth FC Tuesday 5th Dec 19.45 KO

Top of the form table, second-most goals scored, 4th in the league and 5 points off the top (albeit Yeovil have two games in hand), 5 points ahead of the non-playoff places. If we can keep this up over Christmas with our injury worries, we'll be in with a shout!

Glad to see Jamie Reid still hasn't "found his level". When I think of the stick he got for years being shoved out on the left wing, and the amount of bitter people who still claimed he was overrated when doing well for us, it makes me wonder how many people just love to hate us!

Uncle Clarke part 812

I confess I dont know much about house building, but 150 houses? On the land upon which Plainmoor currently sits?! I don't understand how there's the space for that. That's from a quick (and equally amateur) Google maps look comparing to some of the terraced houses nearby, but imagine in reality th...
